The Organic Fertilizer Blends and Single Ingredients all can be made into compost of fertilizer teas, along with his soils. They call for it to steep, but i choose to brew it in a 5 gallon bucket with an air pump, air stone, a hand full of my own compost and a few tablespoons of unsulphured black strap mollasses. And remember!!! This stuff has to be used within 3-5 days of making it, or the beneficial microbes begin to die off, and your left with rotten smelling fertilizer, instead of compost tea.

I hope the organic guys find this useful. Happy Growing!!

I use a few of the products. Rock phos being the main one. For my needs it's easier to buy in bulk. You should try using soybean/alfalfa meal. You will never look back.

 

[drfting07]

How do you use the Soft Rock Phosphate and Alfalfa Meal? And what ratios? Thanks!

 

[nouvellechef]

5lb's phosphate per 18cf of soil mix. Both soybean and alfalfa are 1tb per gal of medium. Preferably soybean to be used if you can find it.. But the combo is beneficial, because the alfalfa has a natural growth hormone.

Made 2 gallons of Tea with Dr. Earth Organic 5 Vegetable, tomato and herb fertilizer yesterday. I added 3 tablespoons of Molasses, 1 1/2 cups of dr. earth in 2 gallons of water and brewed it with an airstone last night. When i woke to feed the girls, there was a 2" layer of foam from the beneficial bacteria already! Im very happy with the stuff, and my two girls, an indica dominant and a sativa dominant pheno, cant get enough!

I just built soil using a bunch of Dr. Earth products. The soil has been cooking for a week or so and it smells amazing.
